SAT scores: A college admissions officer takes a simple random sample of 100 entering freshmen and computes their mean mathematics SAT score to be 433 . Assume the population standard deviation is 115 .
(a) Construct a 99 % confidence interval for the mean mathematics SAT score for the entering freshman class. Round the answer to the nearest whole number.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval is  [tex] 403.33 <  \mu < 462.67 [/tex]  

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The sample size is  n  =  100

   The sample mean is  [tex]\= x = 433[/tex]

    The standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = 115[/tex]

From the question we are told the confidence level is  99% , hence the level of significance is    

      [tex]\alpha = (100 - 99 ) \%[/tex]

=>   [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex]

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value  of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] is  

   [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  2.58[/tex]

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } *  \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

=>   [tex]E = 2.58 *  \frac{115 }{\sqrt{100} }[/tex]

=>   [tex]E = 29.67 [/tex]

Generally 99% confidence interval is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]\= x -E <  \mu <  \=x  +E[/tex]

=>    [tex]433 -29.67 <  \mu < 433 + 29.67[/tex]    

=>    [tex] 403.33 <  \mu < 462.67 [/tex]

A ball is hit into air at time t=0 seconds.its height above the ground is given by the equation h=25t-9.8t².what is the value of t when the ball lands on the ground?

Answers

Answer:

The ball lands on the ground at t=2.55 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic Equation

The following function models the height above the ground of a ball hit into the air at time t seconds:

[tex]h=25t-9.8t^2[/tex]

We need to find the value of t when the ball hits the ground.

At ground level, h is zero, thus:

[tex]25t-9.8t^2=0[/tex]

This is an incomplete quadratic equation that can be easily solved by factoring:

[tex]t(25-9.8t)=0[/tex]

There are two solutions:

t=0

t=25/9.8=2.55 s

The first solution corresponds to the moment when the ball is hit, and the second is when it returns to the ground, thus:

The ball lands on the ground at t=2.55 seconds

(2x - 3)(2x - 2) = 0
(4x - 3)(x - 2) = 0

Answers

Answer:

(4x - 3)(x-2) = 0

             4x² - 11x + 6 = 0

        To factorize this equation,

        -11

     4x6

These numbers are the key to the solution:

   find two numbers whose sum is -11 and the product is + 24 (4 x 6)

   So, the numbers are -3 and -8

    4x² - 8x - 3x + 6 = 0

Subtract the new value from original value to find the difference:

35 - 28 = 7

Divide the difference by the original amount and multiply by 100:

7/35 = 0.2 x 100 = 20%

The decrease was 20%

Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

First, subtract the new value from the original value to find the difference between the two.

35 - 28 = 7

Next, divide the difference by the original amount.

7 / 35 = 0.2

Then, multiply by 100.

An Airliner has a capacity for 300 passengers. If the company overbook a flight with 320 passengers, What is the probability that it will not be enough seats to accommodate all passengers. Assume that the probability that a randomly selected passenger shows up to the airport is 0.96. Find the probability using the normal distribution as an approximation to the binomial distribution.

Answers

Answer:

The probability is   [tex]P(X  >300 ) = 0.97219 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

 The capacity of  an Airliner  is  k =  300 passengers

 The sample size n =  320 passengers

  The probability the a randomly selected passenger shows up on to the airport

    [tex]p = 0.96[/tex]

Generally the mean is mathematically represented as

    [tex]\mu  =  n*  p[/tex]

  => [tex]\mu  =  320 *  0.96[/tex]

    => [tex]\mu  = 307.2[/tex]

Generally the standard deviation is  

    [tex]\sigma =  \sqrt{n *  p *  (1 -p ) }[/tex]

=>  [tex]\sigma =  \sqrt{320  *  0.96 *  (1 -0.96 ) }[/tex]

=> [tex]\sigma =3.50 [/tex]

Applying Normal approximation of binomial distribution

Generally the probability that there will not be enough seats to accommodate all passengers is mathematically represented as

  [tex]P(X  > k ) =  P( \frac{ X -\mu }{\sigma }  >  \frac{k - \mu}{\sigma } )[/tex]

Here [tex]\frac{ X -\mu }{\sigma }  =Z (The \ standardized \  value \  of  \ X )[/tex]

=>[tex]P(X  >300 ) =  P(Z >  \frac{300 - 307.2}{3.50} )[/tex]

Now applying  continuity correction we have

    [tex]P(X  >300 ) =  P(Z >  \frac{[300+0.5] - 307.2}{3.50} )[/tex]    

=>    [tex]P(X  >300 ) =  P(Z >  \frac{[300.5] - 307.2}{3.50} )[/tex]

=>    [tex]P(X  >300 ) =  P(Z >  -1.914 )[/tex]

From the z-table  

    [tex]P(Z >  -1.914 ) =  0.97219[/tex]

So

    [tex]P(X  >300 ) = 0.97219 [/tex]

f(x)=x-5
g(x) = 2x+1
Write the expressions for (f-g)(x) and (f+g)(x) and evaluate (fg)(4).

Answers

Answer:

(f - g)(x) = -x - 6

(f + g)(x) = 3x - 4

(f*g)(4) = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

These are your equations:

f(x) = x - 5

g(x) = 2x + 1

To find (f - g)(x), subtract g(x) from f(x).

(f - g)(x) = x - 5 - (2x + 1)

(f - g)(x) = x - 5 - 2x - 1

(f - g)(x) = -x - 5 - 1

(f - g)(x) = -x - 6

To find (f + g)(x), add f(x) with g(x).

(f + g)(x) = x - 5 + 2x + 1

(f + g)(x) = 3x - 5 + 1

(f + g)(x) = 3x - 4

To find (f*g)(4), you need to first find (f*g)(4).  You can do this by multiplying f(x) wih g(x).

(f*g)(x) = (x - 5)(2x + 1)

(f*g)(x) = 2x² - 9x - 5

Now that you have (f*g)(x), solve with x as 4.

(f*g)(4) = 2(4)² - 9(4) - 5

(f*g)(4) = 2(16) - 9(4) - 5

(f*g)(4) = 32 - 36 - 5

(f*g)(4) = -9

The required expression for (f-g)(x), (f+g)(x) and (fg)(4) are given as 3x - 4, -x - 6 and 11.

What are functions?

Functions is the relationship between sets of values. e g y=f(x), for every value of x there is its exists in a set of y. x is the independent variable while Y is the dependent variable.

Here,
f(x)=x-5
g(x) = 2x+1

According to the question,
[f + g ](x) = x - 5 + 2x + 1 = 3x - 4

[f + g ](x) =  3x - 4

[f - g ](x) =  x - 5 - 2x - 1
[f - g ](x) = -x - 6

(f.g)(x) = (x - 5)(2x + 1)
(f.g)(x) = 2x² -4x -5

(f.g)(4) = 2[4]² - 4[4] - 5
         = 32 - 16 - 5
         = 11
(f.g)(4) = 11

Thus, the required expression for (f-g)(x), (f+g)(x) and (fg)(4) are given as 3x - 4, -x - 6 and 11.

The equation of a circle is (x−2)2+(y+6)2=100. Find the equation of a circle that is externally tangent to the given circle and has a center at (14, 3).

Answers

Answer:

(x-14)^2+(y-3)^2=9

Step-by-step explanation:

equation of a circle is (x-h)^2+(y-h)^2=r^2

so center is (14,3) and is tangent externally means

(x-14)^2+(y-3)2=3^2

(x-14)^2+(y-3)^2=9 answer

The equation of a circle is externally tangent to the given circle and has a center at (14, 3) is [tex](x-14)^2 + (y-3)^2=9[/tex]

The standard formula for finding the equation of a circle is expressed as:

[tex](x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=r^2[/tex]

where

(a, b) is the centre

r is the radius

Given the center at (14, 3)

If the equation of a circle is externally tangent to the given circle and has a center at (14, 3), then the radius will be 3

Substitute the radius and the centre into the expression above to have:

[tex](x-14)^2 + (y-3)^2=3^2\\(x-14)^2 + (y-3)^2=9[/tex]

Hence the equation of a circle is externally tangent to the given circle and has a center at (14, 3) is [tex](x-14)^2 + (y-3)^2=9[/tex]
